Summary

Practical Theology is for people who want to contribute to the better practice of ministry in their context. Practical Theology seeks to develop and apply methods and tools to think practically and theology about our mission and ministry. It is about ensuring that what we do as individuals, churches and para-church organisations is faithful and consistant with God’s redemptive purposes in the world.

Therefore, when we speak of ministry, we mean any form of Christian service or engagement in church or society. It can include the activities of churches and para-church organisations. It can include individuals working in paid roles or as volunteers in churches. It can include people working in secular environments.

The methods and skills developed on this course will help you to think critically about mission and ministry in your context. You will learn how to question and challenge accepted ways of doing things when appropriate and to develop alternatives. This is a fully online part-time course, so students do not have to visit or be resident at BST at any point during the course. Delivery of the course has been designed recognising that students will have a range of professional, church and family commitments.
